You didn't quiet follow my instructions.
You're supposed to download everything (no install, yet). Uninstall (not disable!) Norton. Then install all downloaded programs.
Please, re-read my previous post.

    Sorry that I misunderstood. The only reason I disabled the Norton firewall is so it wouldn't conflict with Comodo.

    When I go back to AVG, I should choose SAVE instead of RUN then install it later? Could this be why I keep getting the corrupt files message?

    I already have purchased Registry Mechanic. Will CCcleaner do a better job?

    Look...I listed all steps in my post #11.
    UNINSTALL Norton...this is your first step.

      Sorry if my last post upset you. :( Having no formal computer training, I didn't understand the difference between DOWNLOADING and INSTALLING. I thought they were both parts of the same process. ???

      You've made it very clear to me and I am following your steps in order. Thanks for the education.....

      I apologize, if I made that impression. It wasn't my intention. I used capital letters just to underline that word.

      It's OK. I'll try to be more clear in the future.

        Since I don't know how to insert a quote yet, (I'll look into it later), I'll quote you this way....... "All is cool  8) 8) 8)"

        Thanks to your help, all IS cool here! Over the weekend I finally got everything done on my computer and began converting my wife's laptop. The only snag I ran into was DOWNLOADING AVG. On my dialup connection, the download took over 5 hours.

        Twice on my computer and once on my wife's, I learned during installation that several files were corrupt and a fresh download was required.  >:( >:( >:(

        All's well that ends well! I'm happy to say that both computers are now working fine and, I think they may even work better! ;D

        Thanks, Broni (Claus?, Santa?) you made it a merry Christmas in my household!!!! ;)

        Since you are cursed with dial-up ( i remember well ) it would be a good idea to invest in a USB thumb drive...1G down to about 8 or 10 bucks and have a buddy with high-speed access DLoad any apps / updates you need in future and throw them on the thumb drive...
        Glad to hear you are fixed up and stop by anytime !
